'Titanic' told entirely through Facebook posts! Like!

If you don’t have three hours to get all nostalgic over 1997′s Titanic, FunnyOrDie has decided to outline the entire movie’s plot with Facebook posts. That way you can relive all the drama of James Cameron’s romance/disaster flick in considerably less time — certainly less time than it took to read through the movie’s exhaustive Wikipedia page.

On the fake timeline, (SPOILER ALERT! If you’ve somehow managed to never see the movie) Jake Dawson and Rose DeWitt Bukater become Friends, and subsequently notify everyone that they’re In A Relationship. As you can imagine, Cal Hockley dislikes this news. (Ed. note: When are we going to get a dislike button, Mark Zuckerberg?) The Iceberg creates its own Facebook event, and well, we all know what happens after that. Rose promises to never let go… but then she does anyway. Perhaps my favorite part of the faux timeline is Jack’s new photo album cleverly titled “I’m On A Boat.” Completing this historical anachronism of combining Facebook and Titanic, T-Pain himself “likes” the addition.

What’s your favorite part of the timeline? And what other movies do you think deserve the fake Facebook treatment? Sound off in the comments, and as a rule of thumb, don’t attend Facebook events created by natural disasters.

        Way to reinforce that age old stereotype of how insular Americans are. You do realise your using the WORLD wide web? Here in Sydney it’s just gone 10 past 9 & i started at 6. Why am i telling you this? Hopefully to get you to shut up!

      Well it was made up by the folks at Funny or Die who get paid to make things funny…so technically they are working. But other then to get a rise, why bother the negative post?

  • Brian Wallace

    He’s working. YOU’RE just snarkily commenting.

    • ded

      Right.. aparently this guy has a large facebook following as well as partnerships with several major internet entertainment outlets. So his job is probably actually better than most people commenting here.

  • Kelcie

    That was clever and hilarious! Seeing as how that’s the FunnyOrDie folk’s job to make that stuff, it’s a good use of time. I’d like to see the list of ship patrons who liked the different comments. :)
